What is the Program about?
The Sutherland Shire - Chuo City Sister City Student Program aims to reconnect students with their own community as well as fostering an understanding and appreciation of our Sister City of Chuo-ku and the culture of Japan. Students who are selected to participate in the program will be representing not only themselves, their family and their school, but the Sutherland Shire and Australia as young ambassadors. The program is a lot of fun, and you will have many wonderful experiences and make new friends both at home in Australia and in Japan. You will learn not only about Japan but hopefully you will also come back with better understanding of your home and yourself.
